Overview

Property

In an excellent location for touring, there are many NT houses and gardens within easy reach, as is the renowned Eden project. Shop and pub 1 mile. The cottage next door can also be found on Owner's Direct (Ref No. 8156141). Bigger groups have often booked both.

Lovely cosy, welcoming little cottage with everything you need in a great location

We spent a fabulous four days at Ruffcott. The cottage was warm and cosy, clean and tidy and fully equipped with everything you could want or need. Even a parking space which is an added bonus in this part of the world. The location is perfect for Port Isaac, Padstow, Polzeath and the lovely coastal walks and water sports venues of the North Cornwall coast. Booking and all further correspondence was simple and efficient with the owner and a welcome folder offered lots of added info. Fantastic, relaxing and hassle free holiday which we would highly recommend. Thank you Steven and Polly. See you again soon.

Charming Romantic Escape

We found the cottage to be exactly as described. It has a lot of character with the thick walls and opened up beamed ceilings in the bedrooms. It's the prettiest cottage we've stayed at in Cornwall. Lovely when it's warm and sunny and when it rains it's really cosy with the fantastic wood burner. It's well positioned for a number of great beaches: The walk down to Tregardock and the body boarding at Trebarwith being our favourites.

Rustic and cosy.

Mile to nearest shop and pub. Nearest large town Wadebridge with many shops and Tesco superstore.

Good location for North Cornwall coast with typical Cornwall single track roads. Near to Padstow, Port Isaac Tintagel and Wadebridge. Camel trail passes nearby. Under an hour to south coast for St Austell and Eden Project. 30mins to Bodmin.

Small, but perfectly formed.

We were delighted with Ruffcott - tucked away from the holiday crowds but only a short drive away from beautiful beaches when weather permitted. Immaculate throughout, the cottage had everything we needed for a restful stay, including working broadband - essential when you have a teenager in the family! The owners were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, even providing a welcome bottle of milk and an even more welcome bottle of wine - a nice touch after our long journey. All in all we had a lovely week's holiday at Ruffcott and certainly would not hesitate to book again.

Owner's Response: Thanks Fenella. Glad the whole Cornwall experience lived up to your expectations. The WiFi is certainly a major ingredient these days. Satisfying teenagers is a real challenge but a daily hit of Whatsapp can keep them them sweet.

Lovely cottage in great location for Cornwall's best beaches and Eden project

This is a lovely cottage in a quiet village close to the lovely beaches at Trebarwith Strand and Polzeath. Stephen, the owner, provided us with everything we needed plus some great reccomendations for days out, restaurants and beaches. We had a relaxing and stress free week.
